As of January 1, 2025, e-invoicing is mandatory in the B2B sector in Germany. How can this requirement be implemented efficiently and in compliance with the law? With SAP Document and Reporting Compliance (SAP DRC) in combination with the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).
On June 23 and 24, I had the opportunity to attend the E-Invoicing Summit 2026 in Berlin. Two days filled with presentations, discussions, and insights into the latest developments surrounding electronic invoicing in Germany and Europe. My personal takeaway: The starting light for Germany’s major e-invoicing initiative has long since turned green. While some companies are already well on their way, others are still standing on the sidelines debating the ideal approach.
After comparing the topics and discussions at Peppol Conference Europe 2026 (June 16 & 17) in Brussels with those topics held a year ago, one major direction becomes unavoidable: The electronic invoicing in Europe (and beyond) has reached its tipping point.

The German e-invoicing standard XRechnung is being further developed this year with XRechnung 4.0 . This version represents the most comprehensive update since the standard’s introduction in 2017.
Anyone currently looking into e-invoicing in Europe usually looks first to France, Poland, or Germany. In these countries, government mandates are forcing companies to switch to digital. But while the market waits for the next big “must,” a model has established itself almost unnoticed in the Netherlands that is just as interesting for SAP customers: a successful system that focuses on standardization rather than coercion.
